In order to further promote personnel exchanges with other countries, China has decided to expand the scope of visa-free countries and offer visa-free access to ordinary passport holders from three countries: New Zealand, Australia and Poland. During the period from July 1, 2024 to December 31, 2025, holders of ordinary passports from the above countries may enter China visa-free for business, tourism, visiting relatives and friends and transit for no more than 15 days. Those who do not meet the visa exemption requirements from the above countries still need to obtain a visa to China before entering the country.
